I've always been fascinated by Taylor's lyrics that imply friends to lovers and childhood/teenage sweethearts trajectory and creating a story that spans decades and eras..
And while many of her earlier songs may be written for some other paramours, I still have so many lingering questions/thoughts
Taylor’s first time attending a runway show was Tommy Hilfiger’s Spring/Summer 2010 in September 2009—and funny enough, it was also one of Karlie’s shows. They both wore the same shade of red too. After that, a lot of the fashion shows Taylor showed up to either had Karlie walking in them or had her at the same parties. Some of these appearances even happened in the middle of Taylor’s tours, during those rare one-week breaks—she’d spend them in NYC, Paris, or sometimes London (I think?).
In one interview, Taylor mentioned spending a lot of holidays in St. Louis because some of her relatives still live there—side note: her grandma Marjorie actually grew up in STL.
Karlie showed up at the 2013 Grammys before she and Taylor were publicly seen together in November that year. It was right in the middle of New York Fashion Week—she flew to LA for the Grammys after walking some shows, then flew straight back to keep walking more. I know she was there for MTV’s House of Style, but I still wonder why that was such a priority. Also, Taylor performed “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together” that night.
“Wildest Dreams” was written in October 2013 (so... who exactly was tall and handsome as hell back then?). “How You Get the Girl” came in January 2013. And “You Are in Love” was written and recorded in January 2014, before Big Sur. So yeah, the 1989 timeline is kinda sketchy.
And when Karlie went to the Eras Tour, she wore a bracelet with an “Enchanted” charm. Like… if you supposedly have songs linked to you from five or six different albums, why choose that bracelet?
For her first Vogue US feature Taylor was documented saying "I love Karlie Kloss. I want to bake cookies with her" unprompted by the interviewer. Others would consider this a soft-launch.
Also—how does she even calculate all those 8s and 3s? There’s no way those are just random coincidences.
Why hide as early as that? And why were the other girls not as hidden and didn't really require an elaborate soft-launch

Buckle up, fam, because I have a theory, comprising a lot of different threads I’ve been piecing together for a while now
Yesterday, TaylorNation posted a bunch of lyrics from different albums on Instagram and Twitter.
I knew that something was up the second I saw this lyric from Speak Now, for two reasons.
1. This lyric is incorrect. It should be “I hope you remember.” This is a pretty big error to make .
2. This is the only lyric that uses multiple fonts. And I thought that font looked familiar…
Because it did. It’s the exact font as “swooping sloping cursive letters” from the Paris lyric video.
I think this is just one part of a lot of Easter eggs and threads pointing to TS 12 as a coming out album.
I’ve been a comingoutlor since the Lover era, and I’ve believed that TS12 will be a coming out album since 2022, when Taylor first told us to meet her at midnight.
Let’s unpack, shall we?
1. Taylor has been hinting at TS12 for a while now, since at least the Karma music video. At the end of the video, we see the clock tick to midnight IN BETWEEN 1989 and Reputation.
2. I remain a karma truther, and I think the Man wall is still relevant here - Karma is on the wall twice, once in black (Karma the song) and once in orange (for the lost album). I don’t think it’s a coincidence that orange Karma is at the 12 o’clock position on the wall.
This also fits with the 🎃 anon note about how she has written “a story in 11 parts.” 🎃 sent that in May of 2023, and a year later Taylor closed out TS11 with the words “the story isn’t mine anymore.”
TS12 will be the start of a new story. A Brand New story.
I do think TS12 will be an orange/lesbian flag album. It might be called Karma, or it could just represent Karma to Taylor - all the years of cages and hiding and hurting, all leading to this moment. It’s been a long time coming, and it’s coming back around.
3. On October 18, 2024, Taylor posted a video on her Instagram of herself in a stadium. She walks 11 steps, stops in front of section A12, pauses, removes her sunglasses (I’ll come back to this) and then takes steps 12 and 13.
I think this video was signaling that there would be a pause after TS11 (which we are currently in) and then TS12 would follow.
Note that she is also holding Olivia, because Karma is a cat!
Now, everyone has been clowning for the AMAs for a while now, and I have been too! Taylor’s website literally spells out AMAs, and there are 12 items on sale for 26% off. (The AMAs are on the 26th this year). TaylorNation also seems to be pointing in that direction.
The AMAs just so happen to fall on the 2 year anniversary of the Karma music video.
This is especially suspicious given Ice Spice’s random video last year where she was not only reading a magazine from 2015 with Karlie Kloss on the cover, but she was also wearing bright orange slippers and had pink and orange vases behind her.
Here is where it gets a little crazy, stay with me.
Karlie has predicted every single album release over the last few years.
On March 16, 2025, Josh posted this: (I ran out of images for mobile, continued in my reblog)
Rain I think you touched on some very important aspects of a fandom overall that really seals home the messages being sent by Taylor. If we look at Dear Reader, TTPD and messages. I think Taylor is talking about all sides of the fandom and their expectations.
I think she is saying “Hey I’m choosing to be happy and do what makes me happy”. It might not look the way you expect it to look but I did what I felt I had to do and I will deal with it.
In the end it’s her journey, her asylum she’s escaping and her family and happy ending she’s creating. That’s for her to decide how that road is walked. Just because it doesn’t fit your fantasy for her, she sees the beauty in it. Lately in all messages she telling everyone let me live my life the best way I can for my situation.
All fans should be reflecting on their expectations/judgements.
Love is to Liberate.
💥BOOM💥
The greatest gift you can ever give yourself is trust! We have to trust that she knows what she’s doing and working through the shitstorm of her emotional life in a way that she feels comfortable with. That doesn’t mean we cant grieve the losses and what ifs and might have beens with her—she wrote a fucking 31 song album about exactly that! But at the end of the day she’s just a person trying to figure out being a human in the world like everyone else
Of course, I remember it all too well
Sus...
Buckle up veryone, it's Big Sur week 💙
I mean, it was pretty clear how much more comfortable Taylor is speaking with Caitlin Clark than the likes of BM and the other WAGs.
Goes to show what kind of people she actually gets along with vs playing friends.
